Songs of 9/11...What are you listening to?

finger eleven - one thing

 

For those of you who like country, there are many great 9/11 tributes out there. Some of my favorites.
"Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" - Toby Keith. Actually, anything by Toby Keith, but this one especially.
"Where were you when the world stopped turning" - Alan Jackson. Gives me chills every time I hear it.
"Have you forgotton" - Darryl Whorley.
"This ain't no rag, it's a flag" - Charlie Daniels.

 

Offspring, Defy You


You may push me around
But you cannot win
You may throw me down
But I'll rise again
The more you say
The more I defy you
So get out of my face – Whoooa Yeah!

Chorus:
You cannot stop us
You cannot bring us down
Never give up
We go on and on!
You'll never break us
Never bring us down
We are alive!

The wind blows
I'll lean into the wind
My anger grows
I'll use it to win
The more you say
The more I defy you
So get out of my way – Whoooa Yeah

Bridge:
All my will
All my strength
Rip it out
Start again

Bridge(3x)

Chorus

We are alive

 

I remember hearing The World I Know by Collective Soul after 9/11. I still remember waking up to that song and hearing the local DJ cry on air. Damn thing gives me the chills.

RIP to those fallen!

 

And we'll throw this one in for good measure. Breaking Benjamin, Had Enough.


Milk it for all it's worth.
Make sure you get there first.
The apple of your eye.
The rotten core inside.
We are the prisoners.
Things couldn't get much worse.
I've had it up to here, you know your end is near.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Intoxicated eyes, the love and myth, that life. You should have learned by now, I'll burn this whole
world down. I need some piece of mind, no fear of what's behind. You think you've won this fight, you've
only lost your mind.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Hold me down.

[Chorus]
You had to have it all,
well have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard,
you'll get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Heaven help you.

Heaven help you
